Scalable to Petabytes thru multiple connected nodes, Platform CORE incorporates sophisticated data management capabilities including mirroring, snapshots, and automated maintenance, yet provides simple access and administration thru the easy to use browser based interface.

“As cloud technology and connection infrastructure continues to improve, media organizations look for easier ways to backup and restore their critical assets.” said Jess Hartmann, CEO of ProMAX Systems. “With the introduction of ProMAX Platform Hybrid Cloud Backup, customers will enjoy automated backup to the cloud storage service of their choice. And because this new feature is fully integrated into the Platform browser interface, any permitted user can backup or restore server files directly from their workstation.”

New Workflow Servers features designed to enhance creative collaboration, asset management control, and integration with production technology.

(April 24th, 2017; Santa Ana, CA) ProMAX Systems, world leader in integrated workflow technology for creative media organizations, has announced Platform Version 5.5, a significant software enhancement to its award-winning workflow servers and storage systems. This release extends the Platforms capabilities in a number of areas, all focused on extending workflow efficiency for content creators.

“With Platform version 5.5 we have enabled a number of new feature sets designed for content creation workflows including significant upgrades to asset management searching, Proxy Editing for Adobe Premiere Pro Creative Cloud TM, Bulk User Management for University Media Labs, and Broadcast Capture and streaming for NewTek NDI TM devices”, stated Jess Hartmann, CEO of ProMAX Systems. “All of these improvements continue our goal and roadmap of building the most comprehensive media workflow servers in the industry”.

New Workflow Servers open up new opportunities for collaborative editing and multi-user image sequence finishing.

(April 24th, 2017; Santa Ana, CA) ProMAX Systems, world leader in integrated workflow technology for creative media organizations, has released a new lineup of Platform workflow servers focused on very high-performance – 4K and higher – finishing workflows. These systems, based on 3D NAND SSD technology offer massive performance combined with high capacity storage for image sequence workflows in the media creation space.

“Collaborative Finishing Workflows for 4K DPX or other image sequences are particularly difficult to handle in a Shared Storage Environment” said Jess Hartmann, CEO of ProMAX. “Each of these video streams requires over 800 Megabytes per second throughput to each workstation. When you have multiple artists pulling these kinds of streams at the same time, traditional Shared Storage systems just can’t keep up. But with our new Platform Online SSD systems, we can deliver up to 4 streams, or 3.2 Gigabytes per second, to a team of content creators”.

NewTek’s royalty free NDI technology allows video and audio sources to be shared bi-directionally across a network, eliminating the need for costly direct connections, expensive cable runs, and infrastructure upgrades while turning every source into a destination instantly available anywhere on the network.
